That's my office

Third window from the middle! And thanks for the compliments -- I picked the colors for the last paint job!

Yes, apparently a fourth floor was added later and the front door was moved to the center column area where there was a window.

I love this old building. Great shot!

Below is the same view from January of 2010.

For Ladies And Gents

Help me George!
Is there a car wash around here?

Right now, the headlights are the only part that could shine on the 1925 Model T Touring.

A New Story

It looks like maybe they added another floor. There are windows all along the top along with the removal of the triangular pieces.

The mailbox is still there

And so is the Haines Building, minus the clock but looking much spiffier than it did in 1925.

Shocked (but happy) that it's still here

Much to my amazement, this building is still here and housing businesses after over 100 years.

What a mess!

Signs all faded, peeling paint on the window frames, tattered awning (behind the tree), no wonder Nachman moved!

Today

Great shot - I love that you have a lot in D.C., which is where I live. The triangular bits on the left roof are gone now, oddly.
